Sometimes life presses you into the ground.
You will feel unseen. Forgotten. Small.
And in those moments, something dangerous can grow inside you —
hardness, resentment, quiet bitterness.
But life has a strange way of teaching us through what wounds us.
If you have ever felt ignored,
you learn how powerful it is to make someone feel seen.
If you have ever felt abandoned,
you learn how sacred presence is.
God does not give us light to prove we are better than others.
He gives it so we can reflect it.
Don’t hold on to faith only because you are waiting for reward.
Hold on because love was never optional for us.
Love is not something we do when life is kind to us.
Love is who we are — even when life is not.
And sometimes, the greatest victory
is not becoming what hurt you.
